Abstract: This invention relates to a swellable and degradable sand plug system used in horizontal wellbores and the use of the system in treating horizontal wellbores. The slurry composition comprises a carrier fluid and a granular borate source material, where the borate source material is at least partially dehydrated or anhydrous. The carrier fluid may be a non-aqueous fluid, or when the average size of the granular borate source material is sufficient large, the carrier fluid may also be an aqueous fluid. The slurry composition is allowed to settle in the horizontal wellbore and at least partially fill at least a portion of the horizontal wellbore in a direction vertical to the substantially horizontal wellbore, and is exposed to a sufficient amount of aqueous fluid to expand to the point to substantially fill at least a portion of the horizontal wellbore in a direction vertical to the horizontal wellbore, thereby plugging the substantially horizontal wellbore. The slurry composition may be further exposed to a sufficient amount of aqueous liquid to at least partially dissolve the expanded slurry composition, thereby at least partially removing the plug from the substantially horizontal wellbore.
